BalanceFrom Standard Weightlifting Solid Olympic Barbell, 1 Inch, 5 Feet
The BalanceFrom Standard Weightlifting Solid Olympic Barbell is designed to give you lasting results while strength training. With a diameter of 1 inch, it provides consistent feel and maximum control during lifts like squats, deadlifts, and bench-presses. The bar is 5 feet long and constructed from chrome-plated solid steel for superior strength, balance, and durability to handle heavy weights. The sleeve-to-sleeve length can accommodate Olympic-size plates and Olympic-lock collars. The bar is designed to handle weight of up to 300 pounds and has a medium-depth diamond knurling for long-lasting grip. The collars are threaded for easy loading and unloading of weights. The black-oxide finish on the bar prevents wear and tear and improves grip, while the smooth rotating sleeve allows for comfortable, steady lifts. It is a great choice for a home gym or commercial gym setting.
